Some salon and spa owners still shy away from considering outsourcing their towel management. To them, it feels more costly and hands control of their vital inventory over to an unknown company.
The truth is they’re missing out on the great benefits that come with hiring a commercial linen service. Not only is a towel service less expensive than maintaining it can also improve the product quality!
If you’re still washing your own towels, here’s a few reasons why you shouldn’t:
1. Professional quality clean.
Washing your own towels in a smaller, non-industrial scale washing machine means problems. It means dealing with stains and discolorations, mistakes, chemicals, poor mechanics, and more. All of which can damage towels beyond use, which cuts hard into the bottom line.
Leaving the towel maintenance to professional towel service means towels are washed and treated in a large, industrial facility. These specialized facilities are equipped with top-of-the-line laundry equipment. They’re designed not only for quick, streamlined operations but also to produce pristine towels every cycle.
2. Convenience.
The salon and spa business is one of the most demanding industries anywhere. An in-house laundry facility only translates to more equipment to maintain and employees to manage and train.
Wouldn’t it be great to know that you’ll always have nice, clean towels ready to go every day? Especially if you don’t have to take on the labor and expenses directly?
That is what you are truly paying for with a reliable spa and salon towel service rental. Convenience, peace of mind, and extra time to focus on what’s important to your business.
3. Sustainability.
Reliable towel service providers are eco-conscious. They’re aware of how much carbon footprint laundry and linen services leave, which is why there is also a conscious effort on their part to employ more sustainable practices. This, then, translates to you being indirectly part of a better laundry practice – something that is almost impossible to achieve with in-house laundry facilities that are unable to invest in technological improvements.
4. Elimination of risks.
Hiring a towel rental and laundry service means that you no longer have to spend valuable employee time on washing linens, and that you’re also freeing up valuable storage space. It also means you’ll never have to spend on buying a single towel ever again – towels that could get permanently stained, discolored, or outright ruined beyond further use from everyday operations to improper or insufficient treatment processes – because that burden will forever rest in the hands of your towel service provider. You are carefully unburdening your business from unnecessary investment risks and putting the money where you have the guarantee of excellent results without the risks.
5. Savings, savings, savings.
Towel service providers not only save you from the physical and financial costs of an in-house laundry facility, they also help you manage your towel inventory more seamlessly. They can accurately track damages and repairs, as well as the volume of your usage every cycle. Better inventory management plus the elimination of unnecessary investments only spell one thing to us: savings!
